Abstract
An image processing device outputs four-color image data to a display section, the display section performing display using display pixels each composed of four sub-pixels, and having an arrangement of the display pixels in which a pixel arrangement in an even line of a scan lines and a pixel arrangement in an odd line of the scan lines are shifted a half pitch of the display pixels from each other, and the image processing device includes a color conversion section which obtains three-color image data and converts the three-color image data into first four-color image data while maintaining the number of display pixels in the three-color image data, a conversion section which generates second four-color image data by performing an interpolation process on the first four-color image data based on a relationship between a position of a sub-pixel in the first four-color image data and a position of a sub-pixel in the display section, and an output section which outputs the second four-color image data to the display section.
